Vet Specialist Referrals Geelong

At Geelong Veterinary Hospital, we understand that when your pet faces a complex or unusual illness or injury, they may require more advanced care and expertise. Our team is committed to providing the best possible treatment, and when necessary, we offer specialist referrals to ensure your pet gets the expert care they need.

Why Seek a Specialist?

Veterinary specialists are highly trained professionals who have completed advanced education and rigorous examinations in their area of expertise. They are like human specialists in their fields, offering a level of knowledge and skill that is unmatched for more complex cases. These specialists have access to cutting-edge diagnostic tools and advanced treatment options that may not be available at your regular veterinary clinic.

If your pet needs specialised care, whether it’s for surgery, advanced diagnostics, or long-term treatment, our team will refer you to a trusted Australian-registered veterinary specialist who we’ve built a strong professional relationship with. We work alongside these specialists to ensure your pet receives the most comprehensive care and the optimal chance of recovery.

What to Expect with a Referral

Veterinary specialists are independent from our hospital and will set their own fees. When you call to make an appointment, we recommend inquiring about the costs associated with the treatment.

We’re here to support you every step of the way, even after the referral. If you’re faced with difficult decisions regarding your pet’s treatment, don’t hesitate to reach out to us. We’ll gladly help you evaluate your options and ensure your pet’s well-being is prioritised.

If your pet needs a specialist referral, we are happy to discuss the options available and assist with arranging the referral for you. Call (03) 5241 1796 to learn more or to book a consultation.
